Go the extra mile, Kelantan Barisan told

-

With only a few days left to campaign, Kelantan Barisan Nasional chairman Datuk Ahmad Jazlan Yaakub has instructed the coalition’s candidates for the 15th General Election and the party’s machinery to focus and approach voters in a targeted manner.

He said voters should be clear about why they should give their votes to Barisan, which is proven to be able to provide stability and has never neglected the people.

“We are looking for victory, not waiting for victory, candidates and machinery need to work hard, we cannot expect victory to come to us without effort,” he said yesterday.

In GE14, Barisan won five of the 14 parliament­ary seats in Kelantan, namely Machang, Ketereh, Jeli, Tanah Merah and Gua Musang, but lost two seats after that when incumbents Jeli MP Datuk Seri Mustapa Mohamed and Datuk Seri Ikmal Hisham Abdul Aziz of Tanah Merah quit Umno to join Bersatu.
